That seems an odd use for it.
I repair a lot of stuff with it - and occasionally shoes too!

Good to know that works. Next time I have a floppy sole, I'll try that.
I figured ShooGoo was some form of thermosetting plastic, so I thought
it would work under vacuum.
In Nov, I scored some black athletic type steel toe shoes at the awa
farm store for $15, marked down from $80 or $90. Sketc
That's it, repairing some shoes.

Last weekend he shoo goo'd his shoos and vacuum packed them with a foodsaver to
clamp the uppers to the soles while the goo hardened.

I guess that depends on how much solvent comes out of the glue and how much
that relaxes the vacuum.
We'll find out!

But won't the evaporating solvent create pressure in the bag and destroy the
vacuum effect?

But, that's a guess.

My recent research revealed Shoe Goo does _not_ recommend
Did you patch on the inside or outside? My wife's year old boots are
starting the same crappy cracking. Makes wearing boots in the rain
useless.
Outside. Looks not so good, but is likely to feel better.

I used shoe goo again yesterday. Unusually enough for me,

Thought of you lot tonight. I had to take the gas tank off my Cub Cadet tractor
a couple weeks ago as it was leaking. I found where somebody had brazed the

good and skim coated it with JB Weld. At some point I'll seal th

When my rubber boot had a crack in it (in December IIRC),
I patched it inside and out with Household Goop (very similar
to Shoo Goo). I submersed it a week ago, still no leaks.

Hi, All.
I need boot repair advice. I was wrestling the snowblower into the shed after
this last snowfall and managed to stab the toe of my rubber(?) boot with the
end of a small bolt, 1/4" dia. The bolt pulled out and the hole closed up, so I
only need to seal the top of the boot. Will the infa
